SEAS & St. Henry Catholic Churches Wedding Prep

​We are excited that you have chosen to have your marriage at our church! We are here to help you prepare well, to enter into this vocation body and soul. Prayer, study, and asking lots of questions all will help you be better prepared for your big day.
​Please call the Office at 205.631.9398 to inquire and schedule a meeting with the Pastor, indicating your plans to discuss marriage at our parish. This meeting may take place as soon as you are engaged and must occur no less than six months before the proposed wedding date. The wedding date may only be reserved after this meeting. Once your meeting with the Pastor is scheduled, the Marriage Coordinator and Wedding Day Coordinator contacts will be provided to you.

We know that there is a lot that goes into planning a wedding and that many things hinge upon the date of the wedding. Dresses, venues, caterers, and photographers all take time to find and book. Please do not book anything with a venue until you have a confirmed date on the parish calendar.
We look forward to helping you get ready for the celebration of the Sacrament of Matrimony and for the beautiful life you will live together as husband and wife.

“The vocation to marriage is written in the very nature of man and woman
as they came from the hand of the Creator.” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1603)
